Full job description
A well-established, multi-office law firm is seeking to add a Controller to lead a robust accounting staff. This role oversees a 10+ person accounting team, including direct management of key leaders across accounting, systems, and financial operations.
The Controller will be responsible for owning a fast-paced monthly close and reporting process, delivering high-level financials to leadership immediately after month-end, followed by detailed reporting shortly after.
The ideal candidate will have experience in a mid-sized law firm, with a strong understanding of complex billing structures and financial operations. The firm is open to both experienced Controllers and high-potential leaders ready to step up from a senior accounting management role.
The right candidate will be personable, reliable, and capable of balancing hands-on execution with team leadership and process improvement. This is an on-site position with competitive compensation. This firm promotes a collaborative, stable environment with strong work-life balance and provides a clear long-term opportunity for growth.
